America - Country of the Month

God has
shown me that there is a great spiritual battle raging over America. I
love and honor America, a Christian nation. In this newsletter I hope
and pray that the facts I share will cause your hearts to fall more
deeply in love with America. My dreams and prayers are that each
American will return to their first love in Jesus Christ. I pray that
our Nation will return to the Christian faith our our Forefathers. Once
again putting God and the Word of God first in our hearts. I pray that
Christian love and prayers will win the battle over America.

February celebrates America!
President's day is February 20th. George Washington's birthday is
February 22nd. Abraham Lincoln's birthday is February 12th. Pray for our
Presidents. Christopher Columbus originally came to America to proclaim
the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The year was 1492. In that same year
Columbus sailed from Spain to America to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus
Christ. This is a little known fact that is left out of American history
books.

In 1630 Governor John Winthrop
fled England in search of religious freedom. He was Governor of the
Massachusetts Bay Colony from 1630 to 1644. His famous speech in 1630
laid the first biblical and Christ centered foundation in America. In
1814 Francis Scott Key composed the "Star Spangled Banner." This
patriotic song became our official national anthem in 1931 by an act of
Congress. Francis Scott Key's song became a vital part of American
history. "Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, and this be
our motto, in God we trust."

The Pledge of Allegiance to our
flag was first composed by Frank Belamy in 1892. In 1954 "One Nation
under God" was added to the Pledge of Allegiance by congressman Louis-Rabaut.
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to
the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God with
liberty and justice for all."

There were many great moments in
American history and many great heroes. Fanny Crosby was an American
hero who changed the course of church and American history. Mrs. Crosby
wrote over 9,000 Christian songs and hymns. She was born March 24th,
1820 in Putnam county, New York. She became blind at six weeks of age
and remained blind for the rest of her life. One of her most well known
songs is "Blessed Assurance Jesus is Mine." December the 15th, 1791 the
first Amendment to the Constitution guaranteed every American the right
to 1. Freedom of Speech, 2. Freedom of Religion, 3. Freedom of the
Press, 4. Freedom of Assembly, and 5. Freedom of Petition.

The States in America declare
the glory of God. Florida's state motto is "In God we Trust." This was
adopted in 1868. The Ohio state motto is "With God all things are
Possible." This was adopted in 1959 and is taken from Matthew 19:26.
Arizona's state motto is "God Enriches." This was adopted by Richard
McCormick in 1864. South Dakota's motto which is "Under God the People
Rule" was adopted in 1885 by Dr. Joseph Ward.

America was founded as a
Christian Nation. Our Forefathers proclaimed Jesus Christ as the
foundation of America. President George Washington said "to the
distinguished character of a patriot, it should be the our highest glory
to add the more distinguished character of Christian." - Valley Forge -
May 2nd, 1779. "What students would learn above all else is the religion
of Jesus Christ." (1779) Patrick Henry (the symbol of our American
Revolution) said "It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that
this great Nation was founded not by religionists but by Christians. Not
on religions but on the Gospels of Jesus Christ." --

Records Broken!

Praise the Lord! The record was broken for our Christian
sign holding ministry on December the 7th. A record 814 cars honked for
Jesus at the intersection of Route 19 and Northcliffe Blvd. in Spring
Hill, Florida! 8 wonderful Christians carried 8 Christian message themed
signs giving God much glory. We honor and give special thanks to John
Simmons, Lori Allen, Billy Allen, Grace Allen, Sam Castrell, Joseph
Lake, Theodore Robinson and Jonathan Studer. Pray that the Lord blesses
them richly for standing for over 3 hours in the wind, dust and heavy
traffic to give Jesus praise.

Our Christian sign holding
ministry wants YOU! If you want to join us in
holding up Christian signs on Wednesday morning call Jonathan at 352-428-7612.
The signs carry such messages as: "Honk if you Love Jesus", "Smile God Loves
You", and "Accept Jesus as Your Savior." It is a great joy to be
able to hold signs that point the way to Jesus Christ. It is a privilege and an
honor to be able to lift up the holy Name of Jesus and we want anyone who will
to join us in doing so.

Kim Howe and
children Grace, Nathanael, and Sarah came out to join us in holding
signs for Jesus on December 28th. Along with them there was Lori Allen,
Linda Pampanet, John Simmons, Joseph Lake and Jonathan Studer for a
record of nine people who held up the Name of Jesus! This was a record
number of sign holders for a single day, praise the Lord!

Missions Abroad

John and Nikki Garrett are
missionaries who are sponsored by this church. They are genuinely
reaching the forgotten tribes in Tanzania, Africa. They are
accomplishing great things for the Kingdom of God while being empowered
by His Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ gave His church a Great Commission, not
a Great Suggestion. These are two people who are doing their best to
fulfill that Great Commission. They need our help.

This missionary outreach is
definitely one that God is using in a powerful way to reach lost souls
while ministering to them in meeting their needs in this world also. Any
gifts of any size will go a long way and help many people. I would ask
you to pray about giving to these precious people. God will honor that
gift, and bless the giver. Thank you.

Good Word for the Day

True love stands strong through all trials. True love remains when
faults and failures have come and gone. True love never dies. True love
forgets, forgives, and restores. True love is very rare, even among
Christians because these are the days of falling away. Those who
truly love Him possess His true love. His love never changes and what He
is will never change.

What is Personhood?

On January 22nd, 1973 abortion was
legalized. Personhood is fighting against abortion.
Their battle against this horrible crime against
humanity continues.

Personhood is the cultural and legal recognition of the
equal and unalienable rights of human beings.

“Nothing is unchangeable but the inherent and
unalienable rights of man.”

Thomas Jefferson

When the term “person” is applied to a particular class
of human beings, it is an affirmation of their
individual rights. In other words, to be a person is to
be protected by a series of God-given rights and
constitutional guarantees such as life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness.

This terrifies the pro-abortion foes!

They know that if we clearly define the preborn baby as
a person, they will have the same right to life as all
Americans do!

This then also begs the question, is every human being a
person?

There is a very real sense in which the need to answer
this second question is, in itself, an absurdity.

If
you look up the word "person" in your average dictionary
(we'll use Webster's), you'll find something like this:
"Person n. A human being."

"After fertilization has taken place a new human being
has come into being. It is no longer a matter of taste
or opinion...it is plain experimental evidence. Each
individual has a very neat beginning, at conception."

Dr.
Jerome Lejeune, "Father of Modern Genetics"

A
person, simply put, is a human being. This fact should
be enough. The intrinsic humanity of unborn children, by
definition, makes them persons, and should, therefore,
guarantee their protection under the law.

Personhood holds the key to filling the “Blackmun Hole,”
a startling admission in the Roe v. Wade majority
opinion:
